The Invincible Sixth Prince

Is Bei Moduo easier to deal with than Bei Huan?

This should be beyond doubt.

Although Beihuan has declined greatly, it can still defeat Beimoduo.

Pick the soft persimmons.

Although the northern barbarians are a little stupid, they should understand this principle.

"Correct!"

Yun Zheng nodded and said, "On the other hand, from the perspective of terrain and topography, it is indeed more advantageous for them to attack from Beimotu! Otherwise, if they want to attack Shuobei, they must pass through the Moxi Corridor. As long as I send people to guard the Moxi Corridor, they will not be able to attack."

Ga Yao frowned and thought.

Although Yun Zheng’s analysis made some sense, it might not be what he thought.

"I don't think so!"

Jia Yao shook his head and said, "You can think that the barbarians are stupid, but you can't think that they are foolish!"

"What do you mean?" Yun Zheng asked.

Jia Yao: "If the barbarians continue to fight along Beimoduo to Shuobei, there will be no way out! If we surround them with a large force, the barbarians will probably be wiped out!"

Listening to Jia Yao's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but nodded secretly.

Well, that's true.

With such a long depth, it is indeed unrealistic for the barbarians to reach Shuobei.

Yun Zheng stroked his chin and thought, "Is it possible that they use the northern part of Beimotu as a base and then slowly attack in the direction of your royal court?"

"That's possible!" Jia Yao thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, the possibility of the barbarians attacking Shuobei is very small. The biggest possibility is that they will attack us Beihuan!"

Even if we fail in attacking Beihuan, we still have a chance to escape back to their territory.

But if you want to attack Shuobei, you will definitely be shut out.

She felt that as long as the Barbarian King was not blinded by hatred, he would not do such a stupid thing.

"How many troops does the Northern Barbarians have?"

At this time, Miaoyin asked again.

"If we launch a full-scale attack, we will have at least 300,000 people!"

Jia Yao answered somewhat uncertainly.

"How much... how much?"

Yun Zheng almost bit his tongue and looked at Jia Yao in surprise.

Three hundred thousand people?

Do the northern barbarians have such a strong military force?

Do they really have such a strong military force, and are they still staying in a remote and cold place?

"I'm talking about a full-scale attack."

Jia Yao replied: "The northern barbarians are different from us. If they launch a full-scale attack, almost everyone who can keep up with the marching speed will go out! No matter if it's women or half-grown children, we will eat whatever we can..."

If we only talk about standing armies, there are definitely not many northern barbarians.

Even if all the tribes were added together, they might not be able to muster even 5,000 standing troops.

Because the northern barbarians themselves do not have many standing armies.

The northern barbarians do not engage in farming. Although they also graze, there are no large grasslands for them to graze.

They basically make their living by gathering, fishing, hunting and small-scale herding.

Under such conditions, how could one possibly support so many standing armies?

But if everyone in their army were to become a soldier, it should be no problem to gather 300,000 people.

"Is that so?"

Miaoyin smiled in sudden enlightenment, "This kind of scumbag who doesn't even have basic military discipline, even if there is an army of 300,000, you two have nothing to be afraid of if you two join forces, right?"

"It's not a question of whether or not I'm afraid."

Jia Yao shook his head slightly: "The northern barbarians do have no military discipline, but these people are fearless and will fight to the death. It should not be difficult to defeat them, but it depends on where we defeat them, and we also have to consider our own casualties..."

Once the barbarians entered their territory, even if they defeated them, the fleeing barbarians would cause huge casualties to their people.

By then, not to mention their livestock, even their people will be treated as food by the northern barbarians!

Moreover, Lou Yi's marriage to a barbarian princess is ultimately a hidden danger.

The northern barbarians are stupid, but Lou Yi is not.

"There's no use thinking about it now."

Yun Zheng smiled: "Let's see if the barbarians will attack first! If I were Lou Yi, and I were allowed to take power in the barbarians, I would take a year or two to prepare the army, and then fight again after a year or two. The combat power would increase several times!"

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Jia Yao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Even if Lou Yi is in power, Lou Yi will think so, but the Barbarian King may not think so.

"It's hard to say for sure about this kind of thing."

Jia Yao rubbed his head and said, "Now, let's prepare for the battle seriously!"

"I have already started preparing for the battle."

Yun Zheng smiled and asked, "How are your preparations going?"

Jia Yao replied: "With the armor you gave me, the 10,000 reserve troops have been prepared. If we send out troops, we can send out a maximum of 30,000 troops."

"The Yanhuishan camp can also send out 30,000 troops." Yun Zheng pondered, "If Beimotu and Mondo each send out 20,000 troops, we can gather a total of 100,000 troops, but..."

Having said this, Yun Zheng paused for a moment.

Jia Yao seemed to understand Yun Zheng's meaning and frowned, "You don't want me to provide food and grass, do you?"

"Why are you acting like a miser?"

Yun Zheng looked at Jia Yao speechlessly, "You're just thinking about food and grass all day long?"

Is this girl crazy?

You always talk about food and supplies, right?

"I am just short of food and afraid."

Jia Yao blushed slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Baggage!"

Yun Zheng glanced at Bai Jiayao, "Fighting in such a cold weather without tents, we will freeze to death, what's the point of fighting? The more people there are, the more tents we need! Moreover, there will be more non-combat casualties! So, more people may not necessarily be a good thing!"

If he is really ruthless, he will have no problem mobilizing another 100,000 troops.

But they are mainly cavalry. If they attack quickly and the food is simple, it should not be a big problem for each person to carry ten days of dry food.

If all else fails, just kill the war horses and use them as military rations!

But tents and other supplies are essential!

Who the hell is going on a raid with so many tents?

But, we can’t do without tents.

We can't just build a shack and make do with it like we do in the autumn, right?

When fighting against the barbarians in winter, the barbarians' combat effectiveness is secondary.

The biggest problem still lies in logistics.

He never worried about not being able to defeat the barbarians; what he worried about was non-combat casualties.

When he fought against Beihuan, he had the opportunity to experience the horror of winter warfare.

Moreover, compared with the area near the barbarians in the north, Shuobei is considered better.

It's really cold over there!

If an army of 100,000 were dispatched without setting up camp in advance to provide the soldiers with a place to shelter from the wind and snow, tens of thousands of people would probably freeze to death in one night!

He really didn't want to fight in winter unless it was absolutely necessary.

After listening to Yun Zheng's words, Jia Yao finally reacted. After glancing at Yun Zheng with a slightly red face, Jia Yao said, "I have already thought about this matter."

"Oh?"

Yun Zheng was slightly surprised, "What do you think?"

A map appeared in Jia Yao's mind, and he said seriously: "I have already allocated tents and set up a camp on the west side of Qinlin Grassland!"

"I want you to also transfer the camp to the North Modor side and order Zulu to send people to set up a large camp at the northern end of the Ulian Mountains!"

"If we want to fight, let's attack around these two camps!"
